I’ve been gigging my Fandango for several years now. Never let me down and sounds fantastic. Les Paul rocks channel 1 and the solo boost really cuts through. The neck pickup on my strat is a joy on channel 2. It’s a grown up amp with controls that are very active so you need to know how to get the sound you want. Also being able to crank the amp and attenuate the volume by turning down the send and return on the effects loop is a great idea. I don’t know why other amp manufacturers don’t do the same. I like to think it’s a player’s amp for people in the know.
I have the Fandango. It's a great amp! You have to be careful when turning knobs and pulling switches because a little turn will affect the sound a great deal. So, you have to experiment, find your sound and leave it there when playing out if you want to sound good. It is the best amp I was able to try when looking for my next amp.
I'm used to the more traditional brands, but I was impressed with the thousands of timbres and types of pulls pushes buttons. Very cool indeed, my next purchase ... hum
I've got one and I agree!! Best amp in the world!! It goes from beautiful jazz tones to absolute rockin' out grit... A very versatile amp that's sounds awesome no matter where the dials are!!
Nice demo. I had the 55/12 which seems very similar to this one but this has some nice extra features. Something on my wish list would have been a reverb on/off on the footswitch which I think is the same.
Rivera amps have some of the best clean sounds, but I've never been a fan of the gain sound. they usually miss a little low end bass frequency. I use distortion pedals whenever I want high gain tone or anything, and there are some awesome pedals that do the job brilliantly. Great amps anyhow, and I totally recommend them.
My friend has the Jake series . That is why I 'm looking at the Fandango as the Jake series is no longer produced. I am in love with is amp. Is this amp similar to the Jake ?? I'm liking what I see
Well explained, but way too much knobs turning in too short sequence. Plus, to present a Fender clean channel with a Les Paul?? Just because this dude doesn't touch a Strat....?
It works like an extra mastervolume,when you put a patchcable into the effectsloop and using the pre amp out and poweramp in controls,to adjust the amount of signal .

Purchased Mark Tremonti's Fandango ... awesome amp ...

nice lighweight grab and go amp! only 75 pounds

Can anyone help. I don't understand wiring the effects loop to use as a power attenuator?

it's actually impedance selector, not penis...LOL!
Good god this sounds terrible. So fuzzy. Why TF is all that bass in preamp?
